  • Verse 1
    want 
    to 
    go 
    to 

    steel 
    guitar 
    heaven 

    That's 
    the 
    only 
    resting 
    place 
    for 
    me 

    want 
    to 
    go 
    to steel 
    gui
    tar 
    Heaven 

    There's 
    lot 
    of 
    swinging 
    cats 

    been 
    wanting 
    to see 

    Like 
    Joaquin 
    Murphy 
    an
    Jimmy 
    Day 

    Shake 
    hands 
    with 
    Speedy 
    and 

    shout 
    hoo
    ray 

    That's 
    steel 
    guitar 
    heaven 
    to 
    me 

    heard 
    about 
    steel 
    guitar 
    heaven 

    I'm 
    going 
    when 
    die 

    heard 
    Paul 
    Bixby's been 
    waiting 

    He's 
    got 
    something 
    new 
    that 

    he 
    wants 
    me 
    to 
    try 

    Lt turns 
    itself 
    on 
    and 
    tells 
    you a 
    joke 

    Light
    s you 
    drink 
    and 
    pours 
    you 
    a smoke 

    Paul 
    I don't 
    think 
    it's 
    ready! 

    That's 
    steel 
    guitar 
    heaven 
    to 
    me 

    Verse 2

    Well, 
    folks, 
    think 
    the good 
    Lord 
    must 
    love 
    steel 
    players, 

    He's 
    made 
    so 
    many 
    of them 

    Matter 
    of fact, 
    He's still 
    trying. 

    But the 
    good Lord 
    knows 
    that the 
    steel 
    player's 

    life 
    on Earth 
    isn't 
    often 
    easy, 

    So He's 
    set aside 
    little corner 
    of Heav
    en, 

    custom 
    made, 
    just 
    for you. 

    First thing 
    you'll notice, 

    there's always 
    plenty 
    of courteous 
    free 
    parking 

    And don't 
    it just seem 
    like that 
    old triple- 
    neck 

    ain't near 
    as 
    heavy 
    as it 
    used to be? 

    Step 
    inside, 
    and 
    you'll 
    find 
    the 
    wall

    s are 
    covered 
    in real 
    knotty pine, 

    And 
    just 
    take a 
    gander 
    at all that 
    luxurious 
    hi- lo 
    shag, 

    con
    tinuous 
    filament, 

    Nylon- 
    pile, 
    wall- to- 
    wall carpeting. 
    Our Lord 
    chose green- 
    and- gold, 

    my personal 
    favourite. 

    The tables 
    and chair
    are upholstered 
    in genuine 
    naugahyde, and 
    here our Lord 
    chose 
    red, 

    I think 
    it's appropriate. 

    There's 
    always a lot 
    of cowboy 
    carrying 
    on 
    up 
    on the band
    stand, and 
    you're bound 
    to hear 
    some 
    old 
    familiar 
    voices 
    calling, 

    man, 
    look who's 
    here, 
    come on 
    up and sit 
    on 
    in. 
    It's 
    C6th day 
    again. 

    Verse 3
    You 
    can't 
    get 
    fired 
    up 
    in 
    Heaven 

    Your 
    union 
    card's 
    all 
    paid 

    There 
    ain't 
    no 
    bosses 
    up 
    in 
    heaven 

    heard 
    Spade 
    Cooley 
    didn't 

    make 
    the 
    grade 

    Everybody's 
    got 
    Story 
    up 
    in 
    Heaven 

    Some 
    we 
    all 
    know 
    well 

    All 
    steel 
    players 
    go 
    to 
    Heaven 

    Some 
    just 
    go 
    through 
    hell 

    But 
    the 
    Good 
    Lord 
    loves 

    each 
    and 
    every 
    one 

    When 
    your 
    ragtime 
    cowboy 

    days 
    are 
    done 

    Come 
    up 
    to steel 
    guitar 

    Heaven 
    with 
    me 

    That's 
    steel 
    gui
    tar 
    Heaven 
    to 
    me.

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
